Ep 48: Sleep and the Feldenkrais Method with Sandy Weiss, PT, GCFP

 Episode summary:

In this episode, Jen welcomes back one of her favorite people, her Feldenkrais teacher Sandy, to dive into the transformative power of self-care and sleep. They explore Sandy’s recent sleep camp and how it uses Feldenkrais methods to help participants achieve better sleep and greater body awareness. Jen shares her own experiences from sleep camp and offers tips on how to improve sleep quality at home, even if you can't attend the camp.

Together, Jen and Sandy discuss the importance of recognizing the value of self-care choices and how, sometimes, it takes time to be ready for new ideas. They reflect on their personal journeys of embracing what they now value and share techniques to help listeners become more mindful of their physical presence.

Favorite Quotes from Sandy:

“Go with what you know and appreciate whatever it is. Wherever you are.” 

“Rest is as valuable as sleep. Especially when you can’t come to sleep.”

“This is you exchanging with your environment and having awareness of the abundance in your home and you’re allowing your experience to really enmesh with your kids and an appreciation.”
